Yes, the one we bought was a 3582-L23 library with 24 tape slots, bar code reader, and one drive. Price was about $15,000 including a 20-pack of tape cartridges. And you don't need BRMS to run it either.

Look into the new fiber-attached Ultrium 2 tape drives. If you're on an 8XX box or later, the transfer rate is probably faster than moving it to another server. Each tape cartridge holds 200GB of data uncompressed, 400 GB with compression.


Is this Ultrium 2 an IBM drive?  I've had my experiences with non-IBM tape
drives and don't want to go there again.

We have an iSeries 270 and will probably replace with an i5 520 within a
year.  Will this superfast tape drive cost more than the entire system? <g>
